Bring engineering concepts to life with this Applied Engineering Week 3 project-based CTE unit focused on Civil and Mechanical Engineering systems. Designed for Grades 6–12, this 5-day Engineering CTE resource (40–50 minute lessons) challenges students to analyze forces, build structures or systems, test performance, and justify design decisions using real engineering reasoning. Students explore how buildings, bridges, and machines manage forces, motion, and loads, then apply their learning
